When did you last say “I love you” to your father? If you can’t remember, then you can get the chance this Father’s Day on June 19.
Generally compared to(与---相比) a mother’s gentle love, a father represents qualities such as independence(独立), confidence, courage and adventure(冒险).
Also, caring fathers help their children get along with others. Fathers can lead their children into their social circle(社交圈). They can also teach them how to behave and control their feelings.
For example, Microsoft founder Bill Gates was quiet and didn’t like to talk with others when he was a little kid. So his father often held family parties and let Bill play games with family members. “my ability of leading and cooperating(合作) became better through games.” Gates once said in an interview with US Fortune magazine.
US actor Will Smith said that his father taught him important lessons through small things. His father once planned to tear(拆) down a wall of their shop and rebuild it. But little Will thought it was impossible. After a year and a half, they did it. “You didn’t try to build a wall. You are going to lay a brick every day. And soon you have a wall,” he said on TV show.
“One father is more than a hundred schoolmasters”, British poet George Herbert once said. Do you agree?

Primary and junior high school students will get new versions (版本) of textbooks this fall term.
The biggest changes will take place in Chinese textbooks. The primary goal is to include more traditional(传统的) Chinese culture. For example, ideas on the hundred schools of thought (诸子百家) will be introduced to students. There will also be more classical Chinese poems and essays (文章). The percentage(百分率) of traditional culture in the new textbooks will be raised to 30 percent for primary school students and 40 percent for junior high school students. Meanwhile, about 15 percent of the content (内容) will be taken out in order to make students have less work.
The Language and Culture Press will publish the new Chinese textbooks. It makes one of the main versions of the present textbooks in China. First, the new books will be given to more than 4 million students in the first and seventh grades across the country starting this fall, and then they will be given to other grades.
Also, politics (政治) textbooks will get new names. Primary school politics textbooks were called “morality and life (品德与生活)”, and those for junior high schools were called “ideology and morality (思想品德)”. This year, the names of all politics textbooks for the first and seventh grades will change to “morality and law (道德与法治)”.
It’s the first time the word “law” will be included in the names of textbooks since 1949. “We need to let kids know that laws protect them as well as how they do that,” said Li Xiaodong, sociology (社会学) professor at Beijing Normal University.

Flying is a fast way to travel. But it is a big headache for some people. They can’t help worrying about things like, “Is turbulence (颠簸) a bad thing?” or, “Is it dangerous if we don’t change our mobile phones to flight mode (飞行模式)?” British newspaper Daily Mail spoke to some experts to answer these questions. They also tell us other interesting things about flying.
Is turbulence dangerous?
It’s scary and uncomfortable. But it is not something you really need to worry about.
Turbulence is caused when two groups of air hit one another at different speeds. Wind, thunderstorms (暴风雨) and being close to mountains can be reasons for this.
You may feel like turbulence is dangerous, but it won’t crash (坠毁) your plane. “Even in extremely rough air (扰动气流), the wings (机翼) are not going to break off,” explained Patrick Smith, an airline pilot, who is also an air travel blogger and author of AskThePilot.com.
Why are plane windows round?
Round windows are for passenger safety.
As the airplane flies higher and higher, the outside atmospheric pressure (气压) gets lower and lower. During the flight, the pressure inside the plane becomes greater than the pressure outside.
When this happens, square windows can break. That’s because having different pressures inside and outside puts pressure on the corners of square windows. But rounded corners can spread the pressure through the window.
What happens when a phone isn’t on flight mode?
Some passengers believe mobile phones and tablets need to be turned off because they could bring the plane down. However, this is not true.
If you don’t change your phone to flight mode, pilots and air traffic controllers may hear unpleasant sounds in their headphones. It also influences radio communications. So it’s still best to put it on flight mode.
1.According to Paragraph 1, we learn that the story is going to _____.
A. show what worries people may have about flying
B. interview some experts about flying

A. People may feel uncomfortable.
B. Two planes may hit each other easily.

A. round windows can spread the pressure
B. round windows can add outside pressure
C. square windows can lower(降低) the pressure on the windows
D. the corners of square windows are difficult to make
4.What happens if a phone isn’t on flight mode?
A. The plane will crash.
B. Air traffic controllers can’t get any information.
C. It may influence radio communications.
D. It may be noisy in the plane.

When I was a little girl, my father loved to play catch (抛接球游戏) with me. I wasn’t very good, but he would encourage me. He was always telling me “keep your eye on the ball” as I would not be able to catch even the easiest of throws.
As I got older, we didn’t play catch as much. If I had a problem, I would go to my father to ask for his advice. He would try to joke with me and say “keep your eye on the ball”. We would both laugh because usually that advice did not apply to(适用于) the problem, but he would try to make me smile.
My father became ill in 1995 when I was 23. As he suffered from a stroke (中风), he could not speak. There weren’t any more conversations. He could only mouth words, which were sometimes hard to understand. After a while, I seemed to be pretty good at reading his lips (嘴唇), even better than the nurses who were caring for him.
During our last conversation, I was telling him about a problem I was having with my then boyfriend. Once again, I could read his lips： “Keep your eye on the ball.” We both smiled.
That was the last time I saw my father before he passed away.
Since then, when I get into a stressful situation I tell myself “keep your eye on the ball”.
